How to avoid java.lang.StackOverflowError? - java

I implemented a flood fill algorithm to my paint application.
There were no problems for my code on that algorithm.
When I test the program, I noticed that the flood fill works fine for small enclosed areas but when the flood fill applied to large areas, I got java.lang.StackOverflowError and the large area was half filled after repainting.
I know that Java have limited call stack for recursive methods, I'm not sure how can I optimize my code to cope with this problem, should resizing my bufferedimage necessary?
Code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MinimumVerifiableExample extends JFrame {

super("Paint App Plus");
panel = new PaintPanel();
button = new JButton("Fill with mouse click");
button.addActionListener(e -> {
panel.setFloodFill(Color.RED);
});
setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(panel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
add(button, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
setResizable(false);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(() -> {
MinimumVerifiableExample frame = new MinimumVerifiableExample();
frame.setVisible(true);
});
}
private class PaintPanel extends JComponent implements MouseListener, MouseMotionListener {

Solution:
private class StackItem {
private final int x;
private final int y;
private final Color previous;
public StackItem(int x, int y, Color previous) {
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
this.previous = previous;
}
}
private void floodFill(final int initialX, final int initialY, final Color target, final Color previous) {
Stack<StackItem> stack = new Stack<>();
stack.push(new StackItem(initialX, initialY, previous));
while (!stack.isEmpty()) {
StackItem stackItem = stack.pop();
if (stackItem.x > canvas.getWidth() || stackItem.x < 1 || stackItem.y > canvas.getHeight() || stackItem.y < 1)
continue;
if (canvas.getRGB(stackItem.x, stackItem.y) != stackItem.previous.getRGB())
continue;
Color previousColor = new Color(canvas.getRGB(stackItem.x, stackItem.y));
canvas.setRGB(stackItem.x, stackItem.y, target.getRGB());
stack.push(new StackItem(stackItem.x + 1, stackItem.y, previousColor));
stack.push(new StackItem(stackItem.x, stackItem.y + 1, previousColor));
stack.push(new StackItem(stackItem.x - 1, stackItem.y, previousColor));
stack.push(new StackItem(stackItem.x, stackItem.y - 1, previousColor));
}
}
Please, pardon the use of continue. I wanted to keep the structure of original solution similar to this one. I recommend though to restrain from using it.
As you can see, this is a direct approach on how to translate recursion into a loop. Instead of using JVM stack, which has limited size, we are using a collection, which uses JVMs heap.
Class StackItem is simply a representation of all arguments of a recursive function. Argument target does not change, so it is not part of it. Every recursive call is a equal to pushing new argument to our Stack structure. Every invocation of a "recursive" function is equal to poping the argument from top and executing logic using this argument.

The simplest solution is to carefully inspect the stack trace and detect the repeating pattern of line numbers. These line numbers indicate the code being recursively called. Once you detect these lines, you must carefully inspect your code and understand why the recursion never terminates.

Isometric tiles drawing and picking - JAVA

I'm trying to draw isometric tiles in Java and implement a tile picking system using the mouse cursor. I draw the tiles using these math formulas I found and adapted to my tile textures which you can find below. Tiles are 64x64px but flat tiles are only 32px height even if I draw them using the 64x64 sprite.
The map is a simple 2d array where my tiles are represented by their id.
Here is the class I use to convert map coordinates to screen coordinates using the toIso() function. I pass my screen coordinates which represent the cursor position on the screen to the toGrid() function to convert them to map coordinates.
public class Utils {
private static int TILE_WIDTH = Tile.TILE_WIDTH;
private static int TILE_HEIGHT = Tile.TILE_HEIGHT;
private static int TILE_WIDTH_HALF = TILE_WIDTH/2;
private static int TILE_HEIGHT_HALF = TILE_HEIGHT/2;
private static int TILE_WIDTH_QUARTER = TILE_WIDTH_HALF/2;
private static int TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER = TILE_HEIGHT_HALF/2;
public static int[] toIso(int x, int y){
int i = (x - y) * TILE_WIDTH_HALF;
int j = (x + y) * TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER;
//800 and 100 are temporary offsets I apply to center the map.
i+=800;
j+=100;
return new int[]{i,j};
}
public static int[] toGrid(int x, int y){
//800 and 100 are temporary offsets I apply to center the map.
x-=800;
y-=100;
int i = ( x / ( TILE_WIDTH_HALF ) + y / ( TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER )) / 2;
int j = ( y / ( TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER ) - ( x / ( TILE_WIDTH_HALF ))) / 2;
return new int[]{i,j};
}}
I currently render my tiles by using two for loops and converting the map coordinates to screen coordinates using the toIso() function.
public void render(Graphics g){
for(int x = 0;x<width;x++){
for(int y = 0;y<height;y++){
int[] isoCoords = Utils.toIso(x, y);
int fx = isoCoords[0];//
int fy = isoCoords[1];//
if(world[x][y] == 0){
Tile grass = new GrassTile(0);
grass.render(g, grass.getId(), fx, fy);
}else if(world[x][y] == 1){
Tile water = new WaterTile(1);
water.render(g, water.getId(), fx, fy);
}
}
}
}
I get a diamond shape as I wanted rendered on the screen.
I finally update each tick which are the actual mouse coordinates on screen.
int[] coords = Utils.toGrid(mouseManager.getMouseX(), mouseManager.getMouseY());
tileX = coords[0];
tileY = coords[1];
The selected tile is finally rendered:
BufferedImage selectedTexture = Assets.selected;
int[] coordsIsoSelected = Utils.toIso(this.tileX, this.tileY);
g.drawImage(selectedTexture, coordsIsoSelected[0], coordsIsoSelected[1], Tile.TILE_WIDTH, Tile.TILE_HEIGHT, null);
g.drawRect(Utils.toIso(tileX, tileY)[0], Utils.toIso(tileX, tileY)[1]+Tile.TILE_HEIGHT/2, Tile.TILE_WIDTH, Tile.TILE_HEIGHT/2);//I draw a rectangle to visualize what's happening.
Finally, my tile detection isn't working as expected, it isn't fitting the tiles perfectly, however it seems to be in relation with the rectangle I draw. I can't figure out the solution to this problem, I thank you in advance for reading or any advice you could give to me. If you need more precisions, I would be glad to give you more informations.
Here is a video showing what is actually happening: youtu.be/baCVIfJz2Wo
EDIT:
Here is some of my code you could use to run an application like mine. Sorry for this very messy code, but I tried to make it as short as possible without disturbing the behavior of the "game".
You will need to put the sheet provided before into a "textures" folder created into the ressource folder of the project.

import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
public class Assets {
private static final int width = 64, height = 64;
public static BufferedImage grass, water, selected;
public static void init(){
//Temp
SpriteSheet tileSheet = new SpriteSheet(ImageLoader.loadImage("/textures/sheet.png"));
grass = tileSheet.crop(width*2, 0, width, height);
water = tileSheet.crop(width*9, height*5, width, height);
selected = tileSheet.crop(0, height*5, width, height);
//
}
}
package fr.romainimberti.isometric.gfx;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
public class ImageLoader {
public static BufferedImage loadImage(String path){

return null;

If you need it, you can find here my project architecture so you can organize all the files correctly.
Again, sorry for this very, very messy code but I had to split all the usefull parts of my game to reduce it's size. Also don't forget to download and place correctly the sheet file. Hope this will help.
128*64 tiles
just wanted to say that I finally solved it. It was just a conversion to int issue. These are the final methods that I use. Hope it will help people who are trying to work with isometric tiles. Thank you !
public static int[] toIso(int x, int y){
int i = (x - y) * TILE_WIDTH_HALF;
int j = (x + y) * TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER;
i += xOffset-TILE_WIDTH_HALF;
j+=yOffset;
return new int[]{i,j};
}
public static int[] toGrid(double i, double j){
i-=xOffset;
j-=yOffset;
double tx = Math.ceil(((i / TILE_WIDTH_HALF) + (j / TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER))/2);
double ty = Math.ceil(((j / TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER) - (i / TILE_WIDTH_HALF))/2);
int x = (int) Math.ceil(tx)-1;
int y = (int) Math.ceil(ty)-1;
return new int[]{x, y};
}
After replacing the spritesheet with the new one with 128x64 pixels' tiles, I've been able to achieve the desired output partially...
Why I say "partially"? Because I've managed to get the desired result only from the half right part of the map.
I believe it could have something to do with how the map is being painted, I'm not a native English speaker so I might be misunderstanding what the "Notes" section says in OP's link:
Notice that the "origin" of the isometric tile is the top corner. But usually when we draw a sprite it's from the top-left corner
I've called the methods toGrid() and toIso() at the beginning of the program as follows:
int[] coordinates = Game.toIso(2, 1);
System.out.println(coordinates[0] + "-" + coordinates[1]);
int[] coordinates2 = Game.toGrid(coordinates[0], coordinates[1]);
System.out.println(coordinates2[0] + "-" + coordinates2[1]);
And got the following results, (Which indeed are what we were expecting), so we know the methods work correctly:
64-96
2-1
I was sure to modify the Assets file:
public static final int WIDTH = 128, HEIGHT = 64;
Where I also changed the variable names following the Java naming conventions (ALL_WORDS_UPPER_CASE_CONSTANTS) and made it public instead of private
I also changed the Game file:
public static final int TILE_WIDTH = Assets.WIDTH;
public static final int TILE_HEIGHT = Assets.HEIGHT;
public static final int TILE_WIDTH_HALF = TILE_WIDTH / 2;
public static final int TILE_HEIGHT_HALF = TILE_HEIGHT / 2;
public static final int TILE_WIDTH_QUARTER = TILE_WIDTH / 4;
public static final int TILE_HEIGHT_QUARTER = TILE_HEIGHT / 4;
To use those constants on the Assets file and calculate the HALF and QUARTER instead of hardcoding it.
I also believe xOffset shouldn't be public but private as well as some other variables on the program...
The tick() method, doesn't need to calculate the xOffset everytime, so we can get rid of this line inside it:
xOffset = frame.getWidth() / 2 - 65;
I also changed the way you paint the tile you're selecting as:
// Selected tile render
int[] coordsIsoSelected = toIso(x, y);
g.drawImage(Assets.selected, coordsIsoSelected[0], coordsIsoSelected[1], TILE_WIDTH, TILE_HEIGHT, null);
And for the Tolso equations, I changed them to:
public static int[] toIso(int x, int y) {
int i = (x - y) * TILE_WIDTH_HALF;
int j = (x + y) * TILE_HEIGHT_HALF;
i += xOffset;
return new int[] { i, j };
}
Below I adjusted the parenthesis locations:
public static int[] toGrid(int x, int y) {
x -= xOffset;
int i = ((x / TILE_WIDTH_HALF) + (y / TILE_HEIGHT_HALF)) / 2;
int j = ((y / TILE_HEIGHT_HALF) - (x / TILE_WIDTH_HALF)) / 2;
return new int[] { i, j };
}

Absolute Positioning Graphic JPanel Inside JFrame Blocked by Blank Sections

I'm trying to improve my understanding of Java, particularly Java GUI, by making a puzzle program. Currently the user selects an image, which is cut up into a specified number of pieces. The pieces are drawn randomly to the screen but they seem to be covered by blank portions of other pieces, and not all of them show up, but I can print out all the coordinates. I am using absolute positioning because a LayoutManager didn't seem to work. I briefly tried layeredPanes but they confused me and didn't seem to solve the problem. I would really appreciate some help.
Here are the 2 relevant classes:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class PuzzlePieceDriver extends JFrame

private static Dimension SCREENSIZE = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
private static final int HEIGHT = SCREENSIZE.height;

setSize(MY_WIDTH,MY_HEIGHT);
setLocationByPlatform(true);

// Paint the image onto the buffered image
g.drawImage(img, 0, 0, null);
g.dispose();
return image;
}//end BufferedImage
protected int randomNumber(int min, int max)
{
int temp =
min + (int)(Math.random() * ((max - min) + 1));
return temp;
}//end randomNumber
private PuzzlePiece[] createClip(BufferedImage passedImage)
{
int cw, ch;
int w,h;
w = image.getWidth(null);
h = image.getHeight(null);
cw = w/xPieces;
ch = h/yPieces;
int[] cells=new int[xPieces*yPieces];
int dx, dy;
BufferedImage clip = passedImage;
//layeredPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(w,h));
for (int x=0; x<xPieces; x++)
{
int sx = x*cw;
for (int y=0; y<yPieces; y++)
{
int sy = y*ch;
int cell = cells[x*xPieces+y];
dx = (cell / xPieces) * cw;
dy = (cell % yPieces) * ch;
clip= passedImage.getSubimage(sx, sy, cw, ch);
int myX = randomNumber(0,(int)w);
int myY = randomNumber(0,(int)h);
PuzzlePiece piece=new PuzzlePiece(clip,myX,myY);
puzzle[x*xPieces+y]=piece;
piece.setBounds(myX,myY,w,h);
//layeredPane.setBounds(myX,myY,w,h);
//layeredPane.add(piece,new Integer(x*xPieces+y));
pane.add(piece);
piece.repaint();
}//end nested for
}//end for
return puzzle;
}//end createClip
}//end class
Sorry if the spacing is a little messed up!

Any help would be appreciated, I've gotten really stuck! Thanks!!
I was really intrigued by this idea, so I made another example, using a custom layout manager.
public class MyPuzzelBoard extends JPanel {
public static final int GRID_X = 4;
public static final int GRID_Y = 4;
private BufferedImage image;
public MyPuzzelBoard(BufferedImage image) {
setLayout(new VirtualLayoutManager());
setImage(image);
addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {

Basically, this uses a "virtual" coordinate system, where by rather then supply absolute x/y positions in pixels, you provide them as percentage of the parent container. Now, to be honest, it wouldn't take much to convert back to absolute positioning, just this way, you also get layout scaling.
The example also demonstrates Z-reording (just in case) and the double click simple re-randomizes the puzzel
Oh, I also made the piece transparent (opaque = false)
Oh, one thing I should mention, while going through this example, I found that it was possible to have pieces placed off screen (completely and partially).
You may want to check your positioning code to make sure that the images when they are laid out aren't been moved off screen ;)
Try using setBorder(new LineBorder(Color.RED)) in your puzzle piece constructor to see where the bounds of your puzzle pieces are. If they are where you'd expect them to be, it's likely that your positioning is wrong. Also make your puzzle pieces extend JComponent instead, or use setOpaque(false) if you're extending JPanel.
There are lots of suggestions I'd like to make, but first...
The way you choose a random position is off...
int myX = randomNumber(0,(int)w);
int myY = randomNumber(0,(int)h);
This allows duplicate position's to be generated (and overlaying cells)
UPDATES (using a layout manager)
Okay, so this is a slight shift in paradigm. Rather then producing a clip and passing it to the piece, I allowed the piece to make chooses about how it was going to render the the piece. Instead, I passed it the Rectangle it was responsible for.
This means, you could simply use something like setCell(Rectangle) to make a piece change (unless you're hell bent on drag'n'drop ;))
I ended up using Board panel due to some interesting behavior under Java 7, but that's another question ;)

The panel overrides the preferred and minimum size methods...while it works for this example, it's probably better to use setPreferredSize and setMiniumumSize instead ;)

Now I know you eventually going to ask about how to move a piece, GridBagLayout has this wonderful method called getConstraints which allows you to retrieve the constraints used to layout the component in question. You could then modify the gridx and gridy values and use setConstraints to update it (don't forget to call invalidate and repaint ;))
I'd recommend having a read of How to Use GridBagLayout for more information ;)
Eventually, you'll end up with something like:

How to set a "current" window with JFrames?

I am not sure how to really word this, but I have a game that is arrow key based.
Anyways there is an options menu but after I select options when I try to hit arrow keys and move nothing happens...
I am assuming it is because I am "active" in another JFrame that is now hidden (the options menu) rather than the game screen.
Is there a way I can have the program know that I want the keyboard actions to refer back to the original JFrame when I close the options menu?
And while I am at it, I am trying to figure out how to make the game window full-screened. Right now I have it setUndecorated so no border is up and I tried the code: setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); But the game is shifted way off to the bottom right of the screen.
I am an external monitor right now, would that matter?
I also have non-resizable checked (I'm on netbeans), and I have "set" sizes for the Jframe and Jpanels, should I remove those?
I hope that makes sense,
Thanks,
-Austin
*All in netbeans too.
I am assuming that you're using a KeyListener to capture key strokes, and if so, KeyListeners only work if the component being listened to has focus. Your problem is that on swapping your views, your listened to component does not have focus. One way to solve this is to call requestFocusInWindow() on the listened component after the swap.
But there's a bigger issue afoot, and that's in your use of KeyListeners to begin with, something that in general should be avoided with Swing applications. Instead use Key Bindings, a much higher level concept and thus one that should be used in favor of the low level KeyListeners.
Also, to maximize a JFrame, you'll want to call it's setExtendedState(...) method passing in Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH as the parameter as it appears you are doing. Are you calling pack()? Also, you're not calling setLocation(...), setBounds(...) or setSize(...) on the JFrame, right?
Edit: I see you have in fact called setSize(...) on the JFrame. Yes, remove this as it makes no sense if you're maximizing the JFrame.
Edit

How to move the image inside the JApplet in vertical line?

I have displayed an image(ball) inside the JApplet, now I want the image to move in a vertical way (up and down). The problem is I don't know how to do it.
Could someone has an idea about this matter?
You need to set the position of that image to some calculated value (means you caculate the vertical position using time, speed and maybe other restrictions).
How you'd set that position depends on how you draw the image.
Example, based on drawing in the applet's (or a nested component's) paint(Graphics g) method:
//first calculate the y-position
int yPos += timeSinceLastPaint * speed; //increment the position
if( (speed > 0 && yPos > someMaxY) || (speed < 0 && yPos <0 ) ) {
speed *= -1; //if the position has reached the bottom (max y) or the top invert the direction
}
//in your paint(Graphics g) method:
g.drawImage(image, yPos, x, null);
Then you'd have to constantly repaint the applet.
More information on animations in applets can be found here: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/applet.html

How to move the image inside the JApplet ..?
Pretty much exactly the same way you might do it in a JFrame, JComponent or JPanel or...
Or to put that another way, nothing to do with applets and everything to do with Graphics2D. For more details, see the 2D Graphics Trail of the Java Tutorial.
When you've figured how to move an image and paint it to a Graphics2D, implement that logic in a JComponent or JPanel's paintComponent(Graphics) method and drop the component with moving image into a JApplet or JFrame (or a JPanel etc.).
For the animation side of it, use a javax.swing.Timer as seen in this example. This example does not extend any component. Instead, it creates a BufferedImage and adds it to a JLabel that is displayed to the user. When the timer fires, the code grabs the Graphics object of the image, and proceeds from there to draw the bouncing lines.

Update 1
I want to do it in JApplet(1) using the image(2), is it possible(3)?
The examples by mKorbel and myself feature either an image in a JLabel or custom rendering in a JPanel. In our case, we added the components to a JOptionPane & a JFrame. Either example could be just as easily added to a JApplet, or a JDialog, or as part of another panel, or.. See the Laying Out Components Within a Container lesson & Using Top-Level Containers in the Java Tutorial for more details.
Instead of the stars or lines in our examples, ..paint your image. My example goes so far as to demonstrate how to get the position to bounce around within the bounds of the container.
Sure it is possible, but "Batteries not included". Our intention is to give you some ideas that you can then adapt to your bouncing ball applet. I doubt anyone is going to create an example for you, using balls, in an applet. Though if you post an SSCCE that shows your intent and what you tried, I (and others) would often run with that source. If you want more specific answers, ask a more specific SSCCE. ;)
I want to do it in JApplet.
Why not both? You can have a hybrid application/applet as shown in this animation.

How to make an image move while listening to a keypress in Java.

I'm starting to learn java programming and I think it's cool to learn java through game development. I know how to draw image and listen to a keypress then move that image. But is it possible to make the image move back and forth to the window while the window is listening to a keypress? Like for example, while the image or object(like spaceship) is moving left to right in the window, then if I press space key, a laser will fire at the bottom of the screen( cool huh :D ). But basically I just want to know how to make the image move left to right while the window is listening to a keypress.
I'm thinking that I will add a key listener to my window then fire an infinite loop to move the image. Or do I need to learn about threading so that another thread will move the object?
Please advise.
Many thanks.

You can use a Swing Timer to animate an image:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class TimerAnimation extends JLabel implements ActionListener
{
int deltaX = 2;
int deltaY = 3;
int directionX = 1;
int directionY = 1;
public TimerAnimation(
int startX, int startY,
int deltaX, int deltaY,
int directionX, int directionY,
int delay)
{
this.deltaX = deltaX;
this.deltaY = deltaY;
this.directionX = directionX;
this.directionY = directionY;
setIcon( new ImageIcon("dukewavered.gif") );
// setIcon( new ImageIcon("copy16.gif") );
setSize( getPreferredSize() );
setLocation(startX, startY);
new javax.swing.Timer(delay, this).start();
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
Container parent = getParent();
// Determine next X position
int nextX = getLocation().x + (deltaX * directionX);
if (nextX < 0)
{
nextX = 0;
directionX *= -1;
}
if ( nextX + getSize().width > parent.getSize().width)
{
nextX = parent.getSize().width - getSize().width;
directionX *= -1;
}
// Determine next Y position
int nextY = getLocation().y + (deltaY * directionY);
if (nextY < 0)
{
nextY = 0;
directionY *= -1;
}
if ( nextY + getSize().height > parent.getSize().height)
{
nextY = parent.getSize().height - getSize().height;
directionY *= -1;
}
// Move the label
setLocation(nextX, nextY);
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setContentPane(panel);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
frame.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
// frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(10, 10, 2, 3, 1, 1, 10) );
frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(300, 100, 3, 2, -1, 1, 20) );
// frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(0, 000, 5, 0, 1, 1, 20) );
frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(0, 200, 5, 0, 1, 1, 80) );
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setLocationRelativeTo( null );
frame.setVisible(true);
// frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(10, 10, 2, 3, 1, 1, 10) );
// frame.getContentPane().add( new TimerAnimation(10, 10, 3, 0, 1, 1, 10) );
}
}
You can add a KeyListener to the panel and it will operate independently of the image animation.
